How are we going to respond to the great invitation to completion?
1. Practice the Word.
2. Live the Gospel/Bible.
3. Practice what you preach.
We are heirs to God’s inheritance. What are the ways we can do towards completion?
1. Praise and worship.
2. Going to Mass, the highest form of worship.
God who is all-knowing, all-seeing has His own ‘defects,’ which become our strengths:
1. God has a poor memory; He forgets our sins.
2. Jesus is poor in mathematics; He goes after the one lost sheep and forgets about the 99.
3. He is an adventurer; He doesn’t choose people to talk to. He mingles even with the sinners.
4. Jesus is poor in logic; He spends more than the value of one coin He lost and found.
What is the direction of completion? Towards eternity. This is our true destiny. Our life here on earth is just temporary. We belong to heaven.
But completion has a corresponding action. There is a need for preparation. The problem is, we refuse to listen, believe and respond. Attending praise and worship meetings is one way to respond to God’s invitation. Commitment to the ministry and being a good disciple is another.
God needs a true servant, one that does not choose situations but rather sees problems as an opportunity to grow. Instead of complaining, praise God.
Ways to completion:
1. Spend more time thinking of eternity.
2. Enter into a relationship with God.
3. Obey and do not defy your leaders.
4. Sacrifice.
Conclusion:
1. Eternity is a place prepared for us. Jn 14:2-3
– “In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.”
2. We have unlimited properties. Jn 10:10
– “... I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
3. We will be like Jesus. 1 Jn 3:2
– “Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.”
4. We will have new bodies. 1 Cor 15:42
– “So will it be with the resurrection of the dead, The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable."
5. Our experience will be wonderful. 1 Cor 2:9
– “... No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”
6. We will have new environment. Rev 21:1
